2021 Chapter Volunteers / Board Members
Your Pontotoc County MSU Alumni Chapter Needs You!
Your Pontotoc County Chapter of the Mississippi State University Alumni Association needs some “True Maroon” volunteers to help build a strong Bulldog presence in Pontotoc County.
So, what exactly is a chapter’s role with the MSU Alumni Association?
Basically, a chapter becomes "Mississippi State" in its community. The interest you stimulate, the service you provide, and the information you collect and disseminate helps the university, the community and the chapter members. Not only are you keeping your local alumni and Bulldog friends connected through communication, activities and events, you are recruiting prospective students.
The MSU Alumni Association is working to establish an organized and enthusiastic connection for our alumni, friends, and students. If you are interested in learning how you can help spread the Maroon and White, share your ideas, learn more about the chapter, volunteer for service, or just show your support, please contact Janet Downey.
How can you help?
- Volunteers for chapter leadership positions – president, vice president, secretary, treasurer, student recruiting chair, membership chair, social chair, and board members.
- Possible activities for 2021 & 2022 – student recruiting events, 2022 Send-off Party, regular board meetings, community service activity, annual chapter meeting, family outings. The possibilities are endless.
- Chapter Goals/Initiatives – scholarship fund, community service project and recruiting students in your area
